Engine oil
Engine oil quality is the chief factor affecting
engine service life. Change the engine oil as
specified in the maintenance schedule.
When running in very dusty conditions oil
changes should be performed more frequently
than specified in the maintenance schedule.
Please dispose of used engine oil in a manner
that is compatible with the environment.We
suggest you take it in a sealed container to your
local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour
it on the ground or down a drain.
Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if
repeatedly left in contact with the skin for
prolonged periods.Although this is unlikely
unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is
still advisable to thoroughly wash your hands
with soap and water as soon as possible after
handing used oil.
If a torque wrench is not used for this installation,
see your SKYTEAM dealer as soon as possible
to verify proper assembly.
Change the engine oil with the engine at normal
operating temperature and the motorcycle on its
side stand to assure complete and rapid draining.

oil filler hole. Check the luboil level with a
dipstick: insert a dipstick into the gear box, the
oil level should be between the marks
